I Love Pickled Onions! Especially Homemade!
I love pickled onions! They are a great condiment that can be used in so many different ways. I love to add them to salads, sandwiches, hamburgers, hot dogs, or even just straight out of the jar! The vinegar and spices give them a great flavor that is both tart and sweet. I also love how they add a crunchy texture to whatever dish I am eating. Whether you are looking for a new way to spice up your favorite recipe or just seeking out a tasty snack, pickled onions are a great option!

1 tablespoon of the peppercorns seemed like a lot!
I did not see them in the video, only the written recipe.
I followed this recipe before but without all the spices. It was very good that way.
